If I were you enroll into a different school in a different school district. Redmond high school and the Redmond school district does not respect individualism or appreciate children who think outside the box. Many staff members at RHS and in Redmond school board are close minded and restrict students from growing to their fullest potential. I would not recommend enrolling your children here.

There's a lot more to say. I'd like to mention the isolation students would be forced into for…read moreweeks at a time. They would be kept in a separate room alone and staff would bring a meal to them. How does that not negatively impact the developing brain of a teenager? What about HR? I personally spent up to six days at a time on HR. When on HR we would have to be silent all day and stand away from the group. During meals we would get our meal last and sit at a separate table facing the wall. In total I probably spent two plus months of my time there in silence. That's nothing compared to some of the other girls who were on HR for longer periods of time more often than myself. There were no therapist, psychologist, psychiatrist or counselors. How could one call themselves a therapeutic boarding school when no one on the staff is licensed or certified? You lied to and manipulated parents. Rick Odell told my dad that I couldn't survive on my own and I won't make it without them. He also told me that he was going to get custody of me past my 18th birthday and keep me there as long as he saw fit. All that mattered was keeping students there as long as possible to make the most money. I remember all these activities that were promised upon admission. Then when it came time to do something that cost money we were told that the academy can't afford it. So that snowboarding that was always talked about to my dad... I think I only went 2 or 3 times in the three winters I was spent there. I of course went more when my dad came to visit but like I said the times the academy paid for with the other students, yeah that only happened a few times. Oh and the equine program, that cost extra to participate in. I should also talk about the pathways program. I can't even count all the times we ran out of food and when we called to ask to get taken grocery shopping we were told they didn't have the staffing for it. So my mom would have to order food and have it delivered to the house for myself and other students. So the money my parents paid wasn't enough to ensure I could eat? I should have called CPS. What about the $25 a week grocery budget given to us. $25 for breakfast, lunch and dinner for a week. How is that enough? And we couldn't just go to the academy to eat because again, no staffing to pick us up so we could eat at campus. We had no money because pathways wasn't given an allowance for some reason so we couldn't just go to the store and buy food ourselves. Was this your way of maintaining control? We are slowly waking up and acknowledging the abuse we suffered at your hands. And we will no longer be silent. You can't force me to sit in silence for days at a time anymore. I will keep talking.

My husband and I just moved out to Tracy from San Jose in June of 2016. We had 2 weeks to find a…read moredaycare to fit our commute for our jobs and our hectic corporate schedules. After visiting two other day cares that didn't meet our expectations for our at the time 18 month old and 3 year old son we had become a bit frustrated and discouraged. We were looking for a person that had a great background and years of experience with children, someone who would assist with potty training, and someone that had patience with our two boys that were already fighting at the time. I had found Laura on a Tracy Mom Swap that I had recently joined to connect with other moms in the area. I have always been apart of Mom Swaps in San Jose before, and I feel like I can trust the opinions of other moms so we scheduled a visit. I called her the morning of and asked if we can visit in the next 15-20 minutes because we were on a tight schedule. She gladly accommodated us with such little time and allowed us to bring our little ones and check it out. We walked in during play time and we can see the kids playing with toys. She informed us that everything in the day care was for learning purposes, and that she had 15 years of teaching experience with all ages of children and that was already a good sign. We looked outside in the backyard and it's a bit on the small side but there was room for our boys to ride the toddler tricycles and get some fresh air. She mentioned that she even had chickens so the kids would be getting fresh eggs for breakfast once in a while. During our visit one of the toddlers was starting to get upset with another child and started to yell while she was talking to us and she patiently told him in a calm voice to use his words. He immediately did and the problem was solved. I was surprised because at home this hadn't worked for myself but of course kept in mind that it's always different when another adult and not the parent are involved. The boys started the following week. Laura was reasonably priced and she even provided diapers and wipes! That's a big expense off my plate and was a bonus in my book. It cut my diaper and wipe expense in half. At first my toddler and baby were a bit hesitant on the 1st week as it was all new to them and their first time at day care and away from Mommy. Laura sent me a few pictures and that set me at ease while I was away from them and assured me they were behaving like little angels. After the first week things got much easier, and my oldest was even asking me to take him to day care! Now six months time, my oldest is fully potty trained, and rarely has accidents anymore, and he is determined that he dress himself! My youngest, now 2 is talking so much and even sings along to his ABC's and counts to 10. I definitely have to give Laura the credit for all of that. I would highly recommend Laura to any parent looking for a great place for their little ones to socialize with other children, play, learn & grow.
